Hannah Justen expanded our initial mapping to additional traits from the migratory syndrome, showing most are highly heritable, genetically correlated and map to areas of low recombination. Excited to see more work on the #genetics of complex traits! https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2313442121 (3/3)

Steph Blain used our long-term tracking data to test if hybrids survive at lower rates because of their intermediate behavior. She found strong support for this hypothesis and thus the role migration plays as an extrinsic postzygotic barrier in #speciation. https://doi.org/10.1111/ele.14420 (2/3)

Thanks Leslie! Glad we finally found a project to collaborate on. Hopefully the first of many 🔬🚀.
